This is the time of year when I am still reading books from last year for MSBA but because of my hoarding tendencies on Edelweiss and NetGalley I am also reading newly published books (eBooks while on elliptical). I must say, so far the 2018s I have read have been good.
Tally Jo and Tempest are twins - just like their mother and aunt, and their grandmother and her sister. They have always been close but lately Tempest has developed new interests and hasn't needed Tally Jo to stand up for her and help her out. Tally Jo is upset, confused, and worried that she is losing her sister. What is worse is that it feels like there is an actual barrier between them.
Turns out... there is. There is some kind of curse that has run in their family. It is why their mom and aunt never see each other, why their grandmother and her sister lived on opposite sides of the country. Together the girls try to figure out what is happening, how it is related to the Flower Moon, and how to keep it from forcing them apart.
I really enjoyed this. A bit of magic, lots of heart, even a budding little romance to please the middle school readers.
